- An integral approach to well-being in transnational families: a brief proposal for best practicesPublication . Barros, Carlos; Hanenberg, PeterAlthough the study of migration has shifted its focus from an individual perspective (on those who emigrate) to also include their integration networks in the country of destination, it is also necessary to consider the dynamics with their family in the country of origin. With an integral focus on the analysis of Portuguese transnational families, this paper aims to reflect on how the connection between those who emigrate and those who stay can promote greater resilience, presenting best practices for intervention among these dynamics and generations. Using a post-positivist paradigm and semi-structured interviews, we developed a qualitative approach with three exploratory studies: 1) Portuguese young adults living abroad (N=22); 2) parental figures living in Portugal with adult children living abroad (N= 20) and 3) experts in the fields of academic and psychosocial work with similar persons (N= 8). The data was analyzed using N-Vivo software. The general results lead us to reflect on the dynamics of relationships, where digital and face-to-face spaces participate simultaneously, even though there are different challenges and ways of using digital means. We also found a change in expectations regarding the norms and values perceived by the generation of emigrants, which leads us to consider the importance of intercultural values since transnational families greatly increase transculturality, which can promote resilience among the group. The data also alerts us to the need to train intervention professionals in multidisciplinary areas, always taking the cultural context into account.
- Challenges in doctoral supervisionPublication . Hanenberg, PeterThe supervision and guidance of doctoral candidates have often followed an inconsistent path, frequently due to a lack of clear criteria from supervisors. There is also some misunderstanding regarding the role of the supervisor/tutor, although significant differences are observed in the approaches across different scientific fields. This topic needs further reflection. The paper considers the quality of supervision and progress monitoring in doctoral education paths.
- Cognitive culture studiesPublication . Hanenberg, PeterCognitive Culture Studies aims at studying the relation between mind and culture and their mutual interdependence. The mind produces culture as much as it is shaped by it. How the mind reaches out to the world out there and how this world translates into meaning, this is the overall issue of this book. The eight chapters claim, examine and perform the possibility and necessity of intersecting the study of culture and cognition by introducing key concepts like ‘tacit knowledge’, ‘force dynamics’, ‘conceptual blending’ and ‘intramental translation’. They apply these concepts in the analyses of literary works, Walter Benjamin’s ninth thesis on history, the idea of Utopia and Christopher Columbus’ non-discovery of the New World, alluding in the last chapter to the practical consequences of tacit knowledge and intramental translation in the practice of intercultural communication.

- Culture and cognition or the power of Tacit knowledgePublication . Hanenberg, PeterThe most famous definition of tacit knowledge is a paradoxical phrase coined by Michael Polanyi: “We know more than we can tell”. Tacit knowledge is therefore something that is neither told nor spoken, something that is not “at hand”. It refers to something that we know, without our being aware of that knowledge. However, we depend upon it in order to be able to act. In order to develop a clearer description of the importance of tacit knowledge (in the context of the current crisis), we examine some examples of “gut feelings” that lead us to solve problems without the explicit intervention of knowledge. Next we present the idea of a “geography of thought” in order to describe tacit knowledge in cultural diversity. Finally, we relate Polanyi’s concept to the ‘Cognitive System of Culture’ developed by Leonard Talmy, in order to pave the way for three conclusions: (1) tacit knowledge is based on experience, (2) it is shared (and not simply individual), and (3) it therefore represents a challenge for education. Knowing more about tacit knowledge means recognising its fundamental power for determining culture and its projection into the near future.
